Ethnic necklace which is 36 inches end to end. The blue beads are glass and they are strung on a type of sinew. There are brass and black beads along the design. There is a Mother of pearl button in the center, and rawhide ties with the same blue and brass beads. The necklace is striking and different, and because of the length, it can be varied The black longish beads are bone. The necklace is 1 3/8 of an inch wide. I don't know the age of the piece, but it does look great on.
